I'm glad over time I've developed a taste for beer mainly as it is often offered to me in a variety of settings. I have my preferences, but can also "stomach" beers that I normally wouldn't buy if given to me.
I'd recommend going to HyVee or a place that does a "mix and match" and for $10 or so you could make a six pack of a variety of beers. I have in-laws that always get me a six pack at Christmas (they usually buy the funny labels/bottles as their way of choosing) and i always enjoy trying whatever it may be...i've found some i like I never would have bought..and learned what ones just don't float my boat.
On a side note....I noticed a few talking about the calories and such. I've always said this (even in college)...what's the goal? is it to get a good buzz? I am the type that then saves the calories and makes a stiff mixed drink vs drinking 6-8 cans of beer.

Drink a Summer Shandy - Easy good stuff..
Mich Ultra is beer, and its easy to drink.
Coors Light
Those three are beers you can do no wrong with, and doesnt require you to drink beers you need to get use to.

I hated beer too...then I turned 14 and haven't turned back. Don't get me wrong I love me some whiskey but beer is good for drinking whenever. I feel the need to justify when I am drinking liquor, cant just be because I am walking to the mailbox.
This is what I came on this thread to post almost exactly. I guess us old man beer drinkers think alike. It is about the thirst - hot and dusty - along with a really ice cold beginner's beer.
Start with wheat beer, 312, shock top, boulevard wheat, blue moon. Should be able to find those anywhere. Or order coors light/bud light, super cold and it has 0 flavor.
Didn't really like beer heading into college so I would just chew some gum while drinking. A little unconventional but it got me through until I acquired the taste.
No joke this is similar to what i did as well ... Now i know what kind of beers i enjoy ... Also as others have said, beer flights are a great way to develop your palette and figure out what suits your taste ...
Go to the store and "make" your own six pack. It costs more, but you get quite the variety, and it will help you figure out what you like. I still make my own six packs from time to time because I like to try new things.
